On April 9, the first Chinese Humanoid Robot Industry Conference and Embodied Intelligence Summit opened in Haidian District. The summit grasped the pulse of a new round of scientific and technological waves, with the theme of "Competing for the Humanoid Trillion Track and Reshaping the New Era of Future Industry", more than 100 enterprises in the humanoid robot industry chain, more than 200 humanoid robot academicians, experts and entrepreneurs, carried out wonderful reports around the four major thematic activities, attracting more than 1,200 industry professionals from all over the world to participate in the meeting. The two exhibition areas brought together more than 30 companies to display the latest technologies and products, showing the new trends and trends of the development of the humanoid robot industry.

To lead the new wave of science and technology, we must seize new opportunities for development and lay out new tracks. The reporter learned from the summit that Haidian District is the region with the best artificial intelligence innovation foundation, the strongest R&D capabilities and the most active product iteration in the country. In the future, Haidian District will formulate a three-year action plan for embodied intelligence to promote the cluster development and innovation and upgrading of humanoid robots and embodied intelligence industries.
It is worth noting that at the summit, the Lead Research Institute also jointly released the "Research Report on the Humanoid Robot Industry" with representatives of UBTECH, Lingxin Skillful Hands and other joint participating units. The report predicts that the market size of Chinese humanoid robots will be about 2.76 billion yuan in 2024 and 75 billion yuan by 2029, accounting for 32.7% of the world's total, ranking first in the world, and is expected to reach 300 billion yuan by 2035.
After the release of the report, Academician Ding Han, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and director of the Academic Committee of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and other guests took the stage to jointly launch the "Leaderobot 2024 Chinese Robot Industry Selection", setting up 3 categories and 10 awards in the humanoid robot industry chain, aiming to select and encourage the outstanding enterprises of the industry chain and inject new momentum into the further prosperity and development of the industry.
At the opening ceremony, the list of the most valuable investment in humanoid robots and the list of outstanding suppliers of humanoid robots were also announced, and the official account of "Humanoid Robot Release" was launched. Dr. Pan Yue, general manager of Lead Robot Platform (Robot Lecture Hall), introduced that this new platform will record the latest scientific and technological achievements, innovative products and cutting-edge applications of humanoid robots in real time, deeply interpret industry trends, share professional insights, and is committed to promoting the popularization and development of humanoid robot technology, stimulating innovation and collaboration inside and outside the industry, and promoting the deep integration and high-quality development of the industry.
Humanoid robots are expected to be the "new engine". Academician Ding Han, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and director of the Academic Committee of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, predicted in his speech entitled "Research and Judgment of Robot Future Technology" that driven by cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence and big data, we are facing major opportunities and challenges in the development of more advanced intelligent, autonomous and collaborative robots. Humanoid robots can detonate the entire industry by collaborative innovation in production, government, academia, research, and use, and do a good job in platformization and realize the implementation of scenarios.
Humanoid robots are a core component of the future development of intelligent technology and will play an indispensable role in all fields of society. Xiong Youjun, general manager of Beijing Humanoid Robot Innovation Center Co., Ltd., revealed in the report "Beijing Humanoid Robot Innovation Center Development Thinking" that the development of humanoid robots needs to focus on breaking through the core key common technologies, and promoting the exploration of multi-technology paths in the direction of ontology and artificial intelligence models.
The two-day summit will feature exciting keynote reports and in-depth roundtable discussions on hot topics such as the technological progress, business potential, key core components and industrial chain layout of humanoid robots, as well as artificial intelligence and embodied intelligence. It is believed that these in-depth exchanges will further reveal the future evolution of the humanoid robot industry, and also provide valuable reference and guidance for the prosperity and development of the entire industry, and inject a steady stream of impetus into the continuous innovation and progress in the field of humanoid robots.
